Tie betting can be very profitable...yes

My model is based upon coaching systems, fatigue levels, goalies and defensive pairings. Possession stats are utilized, but I focus more on the defensive side of things.

Hi General, been tailing some of your picks since MLB, lots of respect!
I recently switched from bet365 to Pinnacle, however I don't see the line for TIE in the Pinnacle section. Where is it regularly located?I'm also on mobile if that matters.

Go to NHL betting section and there you'll have NHL propositions. That's where you can find a TIE. Hope i helped.

Dunno whats your point since i didn't mean anything bad. English is not my main language so i might not express myself as i would like to. I just commented that night, nothing else lol. Been following Generals picks from the very beginning and will continue doing it. One losing night didn't stop me earlier so it wont now either.

The point is that his a smartass.  Every time someone says anything negative he comes on here with his wise cracking remarks.  Just ignore the motherflicker.

I don't even consider that as something negative. I just stated that we had a terrible night and i guess everyone agrees, that's a fact :D

Anyways, lets move on, it's a new day.

Worst day of the year by far. This season is strange. I thought maybe it's just me but a lot of well respected handicappers are having a rough year. At least are singles are still in the black. Lets have a bounce back evening tonight. 

Nights like last night show why betting 1%, or 2% max if you have a big edge is key. They are bound to happen as are nights we sweep the board.


NYR PL -1.5 2.62 (+162) - LOSE $100
MIN PL -1.5 1.85 (-117) - WIN $185
OTT PL -1.5 3.64 (+264) - LOSE $100
SJ@TB OVER 5.5 1.83 (-121) - LOSE $100
NAS@STL UNDER 5 1.87 (-115) - LOSE $100
NAS@STL TIE 3.88 (+288) - LOSE $100
BOS@MTL TIE 3.88 (+288) - LOSE $100

Overall cost of single bets: $700
Overall winnings: $185
Overall profit: -$515



Parlay:
NYR ML 1.58 (-171)
MIN ML 1.29 (-350)
OTT ML 1.90 (-111)
SJ@TB OVER 5.5 1.83 (-121)
Payout 7.08, +608, Bet $100 to win $708, $608 profit - LOSE $100

Top Play of the Day (no extra units).
NAS@STL UNDER 5 - LOSE




2014-2015 NHL Season Single Record to Date: 80W - 95L

Method: Flat betting Single picks 1 Unit ($100)

Starting Bankroll: $10,000
Current Bankroll: $10,924

Total Single Bet Profit in $: +$924
Total Single Bet Profit in Units: +9.24 units



Thus far in the 2014-2015 NHL season, overall Single bet profit is +9.24 Units, or $924 flat betting $100 per pick


Parlay Record is 0W-13L, -$1300, -13.00 Units

Strongest Play of the Day Record: 1W-1L, -$20, -0.20 Units



Back with plays in 30 minutes.

You sound angry. Why are you angry? Oh, you lost money.
What does that have to do with General, an entirely different person who posts his picks here every day among a lot of bettors who do the very same thing? Why are you particularly angry with him? Oh, you followed his picks.
What made you follow him and not one of the others? Oh, you consciously made the decision to BET ON him winning.
So, who's to blame for the loss then? Who actively willed your money to be put on those picks? A total stranger, i.e. General? Surely not, because he does not have power over your conscious decisions. You did. You willingly put money on those picks. Why are you then really angry? Because you lost money, sure. But with whom are you really angry? That's right, your own garbage decision, your own shitty self and shitty judgment which blindly follows someone on the internet and expecting a positive outcome. You are an idiot, and you know it yourself.

Internalize that anger instead of lashing out; internalize it and use that anger more productively instead of cursing at strangers for your own garbage decision. Use it to kill yourself. Everyone will be happier.
